Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in all of the above conventional methods, a large amount of oxalic acid is produced as a by-product. For this reason, when coal is used as a raw material, oxidation conditions have been studied in detail, and conditions have been found that minimize the by-product of oxalic acid and do not impair the yield of aromatic carboxylic acids.

On the other hand, when coal tar pitch is used as a raw material, such studies are not substantially conducted. Furthermore, since the structures of coal and coal tar pitch are quite different, even if the reaction conditions that minimize oxalic acid by-products when coal is used as a raw material are applied when coal tar pitch is used as a raw material, oxalate It is not possible to suppress acid by-products.

Effect The concentration of the sodium hydroxide aqueous solution in the present invention is 1 to 5.
A range of mol-NaOH/kg-H2O is preferable. If the concentration is lower than this range, the oxidation reaction becomes extremely slow midway through, resulting in a low yield of the desired aromatic carboxylic acids, which is not economical. On the other hand, if the concentration is higher than this range, the by-product of oxalic acid will be significant, and the yield of aromatic carboxylic acid will actually decrease. This is considered to be based on the principle of operation shown below.

That is, in the reaction of the present invention, coal tar pitch is oxidized by a sodium hydroxide catalyst to produce aromatic carboxylic acids, which are further oxidatively decomposed by a sodium hydroxide catalyst to give oxalic acid. . Now, in the oxidation step of coal tar pitch to aromatic carboxylic acids, the catalytic action of sodium hydroxide is relatively small. Therefore, even at a relatively low concentration of 1 to 5+*ol-NaOH/kg-H20, the reaction proceeds quickly without any problem, and aromatic carboxylic acids are suitably produced.

At high temperatures exceeding 0° C., oxalic acid becomes a by-product and further oxidizes to carbon dioxide, which is the final oxidation product, and the yield of aromatic carboxylic acids decreases.

In the present invention, oxidation is performed using oxygen or an oxygen-containing gas. As the oxygen-containing gas, a wide range of mixtures of oxygen and inert gases that do not participate in the reaction, such as air, mixtures of nitrogen and oxygen, and mixtures of argon and oxygen, can be used.

In the oxidation reaction of the present invention, if the contact efficiency among the coal tar pitch, oxygen or oxygen-containing gas, and aqueous sodium hydroxide solution is good, the reaction will proceed rapidly. Therefore, when carrying out the method of the present invention, it is preferable to thoroughly mix the three volumes of the mixture by stirring or shaking. The reaction time depends on the mixing conditions, but if mixing is carried out sufficiently efficiently, it is usually within 3 hours, and reaction results do not change significantly even if the reaction time is longer than this.

From the reaction mixture thus obtained, the aromatic carboxylic acids targeted by the present invention can be isolated, for example, as follows. That is, the reaction mixture is precipitated with a mineral acid such as hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid, extracted with the resulting acidic organic solvent such as ethyl acetate or methyl ethyl ketone, and the extract is concentrated to obtain aromatic carboxylic acids. If this contains a small amount of oxalic acid, it can be easily removed by a method such as distillation under reduced pressure.
